dog pics please
Ben Clemens
9:16
I'll be honest; I have no idea how to put pictures into this
Kyle Kishimoto
9:17
putting pictures in chats is such a pain you have to upload them first, i had to do that with the patches o'hoolihan picture last time
Ben Clemens
9:16
You'll have to settle for this

Do you think every magazine post-prohibition was like ALL booze ads for a couple years?
Davy Andrews
9:16
Wow, Smoltz. That is not how atonement works.
Ben Clemens
9:16
joy
9:17
to both!

Two of my work colleagues were witches and were kind of annoyed with each other and it was pretty funny.
Davy Andrews

ANGELA: I just don't understand why you're trying to sabotage me.
PAM: ...I made brownies.

Ruby - is that Buena Vista Park?
Ben Clemens
9:20
It sure is
Morlock Jimenez

Hoskins making plays! Move over Keith Hernandez.
Ben Clemens

You love to see it

Seems like the good framers use different technique than the good framers back when the skill was first identified? Seems like Realmuto and Maldonado both move their gloves back into the zpm
Kyle Kishimoto
9:21
yeah it's been shown that a lot of the exaggerated glove movements can actually be more beneficial at getting calls
Davy Andrews
9:22
I was so surprised by that. I still find it jarring.
Ben Clemens
9:22
Did you guys know that unless the Astros can take away Philadelphia's ability to win every game at home, the Phillies are favored in this series?

If you had to fill 4 hours of air time, you'd end up saying silly stuff too.
Ben Clemens
9:23
That's very true
kdl
9:23
Ugh. Stats like "games won in the series" are ruining the game.
Ben Clemens
9:23
That's why no one pays me millions of dollars to do it
Lzfreak
9:25
I wish I could opt out of political commercials
Ben Clemens
9:26
Hm didn't mean to click on that one lol
But agree
Jeremy

Phils should roll.with Stott next year, or platoon him, or sign a big name free agent SS?
Kyle Kishimoto
9:27
obviously you try to upgrade - but it's hard to platoon him since he doesn't have a large platoon split (i don't think the reverse splits he had this year are that big). if you strike out in trade/free agency i think he's fine as a second-third division starter
Ben Clemens
9:27
I think I'd just run with him
9:28
He's pretty good! How are you gonna find out what you have otherwise
Morlock Jimenez
9:28
Same here! I already voted, you're wasting your cash!
Davy Andrews
9:28
I voted today! Early voting rules.
Mateo

I know it's impossible to do a baseball broadcast without saying something silly, but I laughed when Smoltz referred to a stat tonight as "a numerical number."
Morlock Jimenez
9:29
I love hearing the home crowd boo a time out ask.
Ben Clemens
9:29
It's excellent
I like it more than booing pickoff throws
Jeremy
9:29
Phils keep Bohm as a starter? Or look to upgrade?
Ben Clemens
9:29
I don't know if they SHOULD keep him. I probably would. But they 100% will
Davy Andrews

In case anyone didn't read Esteban's article about McCormick, it was quite good. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/why-chas-mccormick-loves-going-oppo-and-ne...

The whole idea of getting rid of solid cost controlled players just doesn't seem to me like something many teams do
